semalt

Last year I wrote an article called How to deal with (block) semalt referrer spam in your Analytics Data. This approach has been fairly successful in lowering the amount of crawler based referrer spam. As new offenders have popped up I've adjusted my Apache Vhost configurations to block more of these from appearing in my analytics data, so this article is to serve as an update to that first one.
